Reclaiming Doggerland

Reclaiming Doggerland is a weblog with narrative text as well as a series of photographs taken between 2010 and 2018 around the North Sea coast in England, Germany and the Netherlands. The title is taken from the caption on maps made by the archeologist Bryony Coles, showing the possible location of prehistoric “Doggerland” under the North Sea. The photographs show areas of land reclamation in different counties but around the same body of water. They capture a temporal landscape that looks permanent and a seemingly consistent scenery, which is separated by sea and land borders.
